Hello,
I made a post about this in the physics forum but I guess this is the correct place. I am looking for some books in the hopes of teaching myself some basic physics in order to understand some aspects of biophysics. My understanding is that I would probably have to review 4 basic areas, classical mechanics, electrodynamics, quantum mechanics and statistical mechanics.
I so far have picked up some of Greiner's books but I am wondering if there are better titles. My background is limited to some mathematics in multivariable calculus, linear algebra and real analysis and some algebra.
Also what is the fundamental difference between a graduate/undegraduate book on these topics?
Thanks in advance,
Excor.
